I got mine pulled about 10 years ago. I still remember that it sucked. They knocked me out and I woke up briefly during the procedure. Same thing happened when I tore my knee up. The worst part is that I got no painkillers after the procedure. My dad was military but I was not considered a dependent at the time so he would have had to pay. He found a free option and volunteered me to be part of a pain study at NIH (National Institute of Health). Some patients got pain medicine, some got placebo. I was one of the unlucky ones. From what I remember, the pain wasn't as bad as the feeling of having big f-ing holes in your mouth.
